How To Take Care Of Your Boat’s Sails

11/21/2022

​Prolonging your boat's sail to ensure your safety as you use it at sea is vital. It is essential to maintain your sail as the performance of your boat relies heavily on this.

Whether this boat is used competitively or for leisure, taking care of your boat's sails is one of the responsibilities you need to fulfill. Here is everything you need to know about it.
Tips To Take Care Of Your Boat's Sails
Your boat will ride on better and sail any form of weather at sea if it is maintained. This list can help you maintain your sail to be in tip-top shape.

Minimize Your Flogging
If you keep pointing your sail to the wind whenever there is a strong wind, it will downgrade your sail's performance and make it easier to break. The fibers in your sail will loosen and need more tightening until they eventually rip apart.
​
Don't Let Dirt Build Up On Your Sails.
A major "No." This will rapidly increase mold and other unwanted elements affecting your sail's performance.

Don't Forget To Block Sun Rays.
UV rays are the worst when your sail is exposed to them. It would be best always to cover up your sails when it is sunny so they will not deteriorate quickly when not in use.

Wash Your Sail Properly
In washing, ensure you get rid of the salt build-up, molds, or mildew caught in the open. Properly washing your sail allows it to prolong the life of your sail and better its performance when in use.

How You Can Know If Your Sail Needs To Be Replaced
If all else fails, even though you have tried doing everything you can to take care of your sail, it is best just to let it go. Replacing your sail if it is damaged and dangerous for your boat is better than keeping it and having an accident.

Here are the signs to know when your sail is ready to be replaced:
  • It has a vast mold and salt build-up already.
  • You can see a very prominent hole in your sail due to wear and tear over the years.
  • If your sail is heavily wrinkled already and can't seem to be straightened or be one with the wind.
  • If your sail's edges are no longer correctly trimmed due to it being overstretched.

Conclusion
Taking care of your boat's sail is demanding and must be done willingly. Maximum effort will be needed in maintaining it so you can also achieve maximum ability when sailing your boat with it.

If things don't work out, it is best to replace it instead of compromising your safety as you set sail. It is worth maintaining your sail since this will be your way of enjoying life at sea as it will also be able to take care of you while you are at it.
